I think submenu is not very good idea for geanyvc. Menu list is not very long, and adding submenu just hinder access.

I don't think it hinders access. If you use the mouse, then you
After using your patch a little bit, I must agree with Yura, the new submenus are more in the way than they help. Yes, they clear up the menu but also make it harder to reach the items.
I have two suggestions, most preferred one first (:D) : a) create the whole menu with GtkAction's and then put a XML file with the layout in the user's config directory. This way, the users can reorder the menu as they like and all will be happy. Bonus of this method is that creating and maintaining menu items is very easy and flexible. b) do a mix of submenus and toplevel menu items: commonly used menu items like 'diff from current file', 'diff from base dir', 'revert', 'commit' should go into the top level menu, others like 'blame', 'add', 'remove', 'log' could go into one or more submenus.
Just my 2cents.
